If premarket losses hold, it would wipe out nearly all the gains Intuitive Machines made last week after it made the first U.S. touchdown on the lunar surface in more than half a century and the first ever achieved by the private sector. The stock fell 35% on Monday, its worst drop in about a year, after the company warned communications with Odysseus are expected to cease on Tuesday, just five days after it landed some 300 km from the moon's south pole. Only about 18% of Intuitive Machines' outstanding shares are available to trade, according to LSEG data, making the stock that went public last year susceptible to high levels of volatility.  ( 60 min )
